## About This Game
This point and click game is an exciting crossover between comics and a puzzle
game. Using the storytelling and design style of comics, the game introduces a
new type of challenge where you’ll need to figure out the connection between
the narrative and the panel layout. With your help the main character will be
slowly led towards breaking through the limitations of the world he lives in.
Unique controls: By interacting with the different panels of each story page
you’ll need to figure out how to control the character in his environment and
make him interact with different elements. Using a comics-type layout is an
innovative upgrade of point and click adventure games, adding challenge, fun,
and surprises throughout.
The story: The medium of comics is no longer restricted to teenagers and kids.
In the past decades, comics storytelling has adapted to address a much more
grown-up audience. Breaking the 4th wall also aims to tell a dramatic story
meant for adults and young adults, by combining existential and philosophical
narratives and bringing up serious issues like dealing with anxiety in our
modern culture and other mental health issues. The story will follow Adrian,
in his daily life routine and his way of dealing with different challenges as
an outsider. Throughout the experience, Adrian will have to face his inner
demons, and find a way to evolve as a person towards a freer and more
fulfilling life.
The look: The game is designed as a black and white comic book, which feels
both classic and innovative at the same time. This look makes use of detailed
and rich environment design, while maintaining clarity. The animation gives
you the feeling that the comic book comes to life in a way never seen before.
The world of the story is a retro futuristic alternative timeline, where
advertising zeppelins roam the skies and odd creature-like technology is used
everywhere.
